Deep Purple appreciation thread
I love this song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMfAu72qma0

Perfect Strangers

Can you remember remember my name
As I flow through your life
A thousand oceans I have flown
And cold spirits of ice
All my life
I am the echo of your past

I am returning the echo of a point in time
Distant faces shine
A thousand warriors I have known
And laughing as the spirits appear
All your life
Shadows of another day

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers

I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrow

A strand of silver hanging through the sky
Touching more than you see
The voice of ages in your mind
Is aching with the dead of the night
Precious life (your tears are lost in
Falling rain)

And if you hear me talking on the wind
Youve got to understand
We must remain
Perfect strangers

1. My favorite of all their songs.
A Strange Kind of Woman. That song could have been written about me. My name is also Nancy.

I saw them in concert in Davie, Florida in the '70s. They were awesome. Fabulous light show.

2. I appreciate the real Deep Purple
But not the pathetic joke they have become. If it ain't Gillan AND Blackmore it ain't Purple.

my favorite DP song is "Burn" (even though I can't stand Coverdale).

10. Some of the interviews I read from in the 80's
Seemed like a real ass to me. Of course Blackmore is perhaps the biggest ass in the world too.
